A Grovetown teenager was not seriously injured in a single-car wreck Tuesday.

Samantha Moores, 17, of Fornum Drive, was taken to the Georgia Health Sciences University Medical Center with minor injuries after being extricated from her car.

At about 10:30 a.m., Moores was driving east on Wrightsboro Road near Reynolds Road, when her tires went off the road onto the shoulder, Columbia County sheriff’s Staff Sgt. Ray Childress said. Moores over-corrected and the Nissan 240SX spun into a ditch.

For John Russell Hintze, getting into the United States Naval Academy was hard. But for the 17-year-old Grovetown High School graduate, cutting his rock-and-roll hair for the first time since he was 10 might have been harder.

“I feel naked,” the metal band guitarist said after his mother chopped off his hair Sunday in front of his friends and family outside their family’s home.

His mother, Katrina Hintze, carefully kept his dark brown hair in pony tails so John Russell could send it to Locks of Love, something he insisted on.

A motel maid said Sunday that she was assaulted by two women claiming she stolen their money.

The 31-year-old maid at the Best Western on Park West Drive said she found a wallet in one of the rooms at about noon and ran it to the lobby, where she gave it to the 44-year-old owner. The maid said she went back to the motel room, where she was confronted by the woman and her 55-year-old sister about stealing money from the wallet.

Columbia County authorities are trying to identify three people accused of using a stolen credit card at an Evans gas station in March.

On March 26, a woman told deputies she left her wallet in a shopping cart that she pushed into the cart return in the parking lot of the Walmart on Washington Road in Evans. She came back to get the wallet about 15 minutes later, but it was gone, according to a Columbia County Sheriff’s Office incident report.

A fifth Greenbrier High School student has been arrested for involvement in the May 11 incident in which the school’s exterior door locks were filled with glue.

The student, a 15-year-old male, was brought to the Columbia County Detention Center Thursday afternoon by his parents and booked on a charge of second-degree criminal damage to property, a felony, said Columbia County Sheriff’s Capt. Steve Morris in an email.
